We at Transparency International are proud to announce the 2nd International Anti-Corruption Film Festival, "Film for Transparency: Exposing Corruption". This festival is scheduled to run as part of the 11th International Anti-Corruption Conference in May, 2003 in Seoul, South Korea.
In addition to feature-length films, this film festival will showcase a number of documentary and student films from around the world on the subjects of transparency, governance, whistle-blowing, and corruption. We are currently accepting submissions from student filmmakers and documentary filmmakers for our two competitive sections: Documentary and Student films.
Film is an important medium for stimulating debate and action, and Transparency International would like to invite filmmakers from around the world to contribute to the fight for transparency in governance and against corruption. By offering them a forum for their work, we hope to encourage filmmakers to address the various themes that surround this issue, including bribery, abuse of public trust, access to information, and transparency in governance. We also hope to encourage filmmakers who are just starting their careers to add their voices to the ranks of those who work against corruption.
The inaugural festival, held in October 2001 in Prague, the Czech Republic, was a tremendous success, and with your help we can make Seoul a big hit as well.
